“Jennifer was outstanding. Came by for a quick meet & greet before the single day service. Was even available on short notice. Book with confidence that she'll take good care of your fur-baby.”
“Amanda was amazing from the first meeting to the end of my vacation. Communication (pics included) was great. She wasn’t afraid to ask questions and share concerns. My boy Lotus is a scaredy-cat and quite shy but he took to Amanda day one. I felt very confident my babies were very well cared for while I was away. Great relief knowing I didn’t have to worry about them and could focus on fun.”
“Alyson is an attentive and caring sitter going above and beyond. During her stay my cat had an emergency medical issue that Alyson was able to not only take her to the emergency vet for but then made sure she received her medications as prescribed. I was initially worried but I knew Alyson was taking such good care of her and she kept me up to date on how she was doing. Thank you Alyson for going above and beyond and keeping my cat safe and cared for.”

I like to follow the owner’s routine as closely as possible to make it as comfortable and stress free as possible for your pets.
“We have three large dogs so it can be quite difficult to find a good dog sitter. She was great everyone got their potty breaks and play time, she was friendly and easy to communicate with. Will definitely be using her again.”

About: I use my experience as an RN to better care for dogs and cats. I have great assessment skills that help me understand your pets better. I have years of experience caring for geriatric people and animals. I have developed an empathy for pets and pet parents that only comes from years of working to provide the best possible care I can. Whatever your pet needs, from feeding to end of life care, I would be honored to have that responsibility. I am available any day of the week. I do have other obligations occasionally. The sooner you call, the better I will be able to accomodate you and your pet.

I like to spend some time getting to know all involved better, At that time you can show me whatever I might need to know. I look forward to meeting you!
“My cat was very calm and trusting with Grace from her first introduction even though Spider is now older and more cautious. She therefore allowed Grace to brush her during visits which was my key request. ++cj”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 9. My family has 2 senior yorkies, a pit bull, and a pit-mix. I also have had an Aussie-border collie since he was 2 weeks old, and he has been my saving grace through college. I have a beautiful cat as well, and he has been my baby since 2021, when he was 6 months old. I would love to be of service for your fur babies! I’m currently a graduate student and looking to work as much as possible between classes and during the summer. Pet sitting fits perfectly into my schedule, and I’d love to give your fur babies the attention and care they deserve! When I care for pets in your home, I treat them as if they were my own. I’ll make sure they’re comfortable, safe, and happy while you're away. I’ll stick to their routine as much as possible, whether it's feeding, walks, or playtime, so they feel secure. I’m also attentive to any special needs they may have, from medications to behavioral preferences. Your home will be in good hands. I'll clean up after the pets, ensure they have plenty of exercise, and provide lots of love and attention. You can rest easy knowing your pets are in a familiar environment, well taken care of, and loved!
About: I have had pets for as long as I remember, from fish, dogs, cats, and even chickens! We’ve had small (a runt mountain curr) and big (four great pyrenees)! I’ve trained my babies myself, and have helped family and friends train theirs as well! I’m currently in school and working until 5 on days that I am free of classes, this means I’ll have plenty of time to play with your babies! I’m pretty flexible work with any schedule if I need to, just send me a message! I live in an apartment that’s pretty spacious. Your babies are welcome to roam freely! It is right downtown Johnson City, so we have plenty of parks to walk around and play at!
About: I’ve raised one dog since he was a puppy. He is now almost 13, and another who’s now 6. I truly understand every stage of a dog’s life, from playful puppy energy to senior care and comfort. Over the years, I’ve also done off and on petsitting for neighbors, caring for a variety of breeds and temperaments. I treat every pet like my own and make sure they always feel safe, loved, and at ease while you’re away. My schedule varies weekly, so my availability may change. That said, I communicate promptly, confirm visits ahead of time, and make sure all pets are able to receive consistent, reliable care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and stick to all instructions closely, from feeding times to preferred walking routes. I always provide photo updates and check ins so owners know their pets are happy and in good hands.
About: I've been caring for dogs for over 20 years. In the last 10 years I have been fostering retired racing grey hounds and huskies so I'm ready to give every dog in between the care and attention they deserve. I have regularly watched friends and families animals since I was young. I am excited for every opportunity to get to know new dogs and fall more in love with my regulars! Please let me be your peace of mind the next time you're out of town! I'm currently have a lot of free time on my hands and would love to fill that time with taking care of sweet loveable pets. As with any of my ventures, I put forth 100% of my energy to making sure your pet has a great time while you're away. I guarantee a calm, happy and healthy pet upon your return! I've seen dogs become less anxious when they are staying in their own home, in the neighborhood they know. They know you will eventually return and they dont need the transition time it takes for them to become comfortable in a unfamilar place. For that reason, I do like to promote house sitting as the least stressful method of boarding for nervious pets. Please let me know if you require any plants to watered as id be happy to help you in any other way I can. I prefer to keep my bookings to one dog or one family at a time. This is to ensure I give each dog my full attention to keep them safe and happy while yall are missing eachother! This means that I prefer walking in quiet neighborhoods instead of a park with more distractions so I can get familiar with your dog's responses and they can get familiar with me during our first few walks together. After a few walks, and your permission, we can go to dog parks where we slowly work up to being unleased. I strive for 2 or more walks a day during the summer, 3 or more walks a day during spring, fall, and winter. When we arent walking or playing outside, me and your pets will be chilling inside with 2 or more feedings a day. If you book on a holiday it is likely I will have freeze dried chicken or salmon wet food to give your pet as a special holiday treat! I feel that if its a human holiday, its also a special day for our pets because they're family.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
